THEME: TITHING IS TRUSTING

MEMORISE:
Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. Proverbs 3:5

READ: Proverbs 3:5-7

3:5 Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.

3:6 In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

3:7 Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the Lord, and depart from evil.

MESSAGE:

To experience exploits in your life, you must have a personal relationship with God. You must believe that He lives and love Him with all your heart. You must also learn to trust in Him. That command to pay tithes on your earnings simply places a demand on you to trust in God. Your response to this command shows the level of trust you have in Him. If you can pay your tithe correctly, it shows that you trust God for your livelihood, but if you find it difficult to be faithful in doing this, it simply shows that you trust more in your earnings than in God to sustain you. After I became newly born again and we were taught to pay tithes, I laughed and said in my mind, “These people do not know that I am a mathematician. If 100% is not enough for me, how can 90% be enough after I have paid 10% as tithes? Thank you very much! Even though these people are not educated, they still want to use their smartness to take 10% of my income from me. Let them try and take it”. However, down the line, God convinced me by Himself and I observed remarkable changes in my life.

In those days, I was a lecturer in the university. I had a car but was afraid to drive in Lagos, so I got a driver. At the end of the month, I would pay my driver his salary, but by the middle of the next month, I would have to borrow money from him to buy petrol (gasoline). This happened month after month. I continued to struggle with my finances and even had to spend all my earnings. However, when I started paying my tithes, I suddenly realised I did not need a driver anymore, because boldness came from nowhere and I could now drive myself. Also, I did not have to visit hospitals again because I now had the Great Physician as my doctor. My children did not fall sick again, and that leakage in my finances was blocked off. All of a sudden, doors of opportunities began to open to me because I trusted the Lord. Are you still struggling with tithing? If you are, it only shows that you do not trust God to take care of you. The truth is, whatever you are paid may never be sufficient to meet all your needs because you are limited to that source, whereas you are open to various devourers. In contrast, when you tithe, you will have access to resources beyond your income because God’s storehouse will be opened to you, and He will also block every source of losses in your life. It is a matter of choice. Why don’t you start trusting God from today by paying your tithes faithfully?

KEY POINT:
It is shocking to know that quite a number of God’s children cannot trust God with their finances.

So giving out to the poor too is not trusting abi?

#freethesheeplemovement

He's right you know...that's why I trust ME with my MONEY!!

I don't think anybody says tithing is wrong but how to tithe is what's the problem

Deutronomy 14 vs 22-29 is very clear

And until you and other tithe collectors can provide another place in the bible that explains how to tithe ,that's what we should all follow

Let's agreed tithing is trusting God, Christ said whatsoever you do to the LEAST of your brethren that you do unto me. Based on this, James 1:27 shed more light.

Jesus Christ this man just said tithing means trusting in God.

you do not have to bribe God to bless you, salvation is free,

who does Adeboye pay tithe to?
how come Jews don't pay tithe?

how come Jews don't pay tithe?

considering that they have not paid tithe since the destruction of the temple in 70AD that is 70 years after the death of Christ.
if the jews (the people following the Mosaic Law) are not paying tithe as the old testament suggest because the temple has not been built and their rabbi do not collect tithe then who does your pastor pay tithe to?
does he pay tithe to God? how?
how come God need money before he can bless you or open your way for you?
when tithe is not money in the first place.
don't forget that Adeboye quoted portionf the Bible to make sure his sheeps do not understand what he is saying by not leaning to their own understanding of the Bible.

this is the kind of people who judges a book by it cover.

were did he say,given out to the poor is not trusting onto God? you guys have successfully helping the devil in diverting the weightier matter of the law (salvation) and show more emphasis on issue that are not necessary to salvation.

tithing is the evidence of faith ,tithing is trusting on God, just as Abraham trust God when he was called to offer his only son Isaac.

The Christian life is to continue in the same way that it commenced : "As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord (by looking unto Him in simple childlike trust), so WALK YE IN HIM" (Col. 2:6). Let's get our eyes on the lovely Saviour and move forward with our full confidence in Him!

. Don't be deceived follow what D bible said not what your pastor said, u can also give that money to God through a begged or pay someone's hospital bill

Nothing can be more fraudulent than the above statement from Adeboye.

After seeing Romans 10.4 , I realised most Nigerian pastors don't even know the Bible, and if their followers weren't so lazy and brainwashed, they would study the Bible and come to the understanding, that loving and giving with a cheerful heart is what is required of them.
